12 Volts is the second label of the emblematic 4 Kilos winery in Mallorca, and a wine with an accessible and very gastronomic profile, pairing up well with lots of dishes. It's made from a combination of varieties, some indigenous (Callet and Fogoneu amount to 60% of the blend) and some Bordeaux, and also amalgamates a Mediterranean character, the Mallorquin element, aromas of aromatic plants (oregano), with the Atlantic, showing its moist undertone of damp earth. It's a wine which harmonizes rusticity and pure loveliness, that comes over as powerful but not adversely so.

About the vineyard[+]

The Wine Essence of Mallorca The wine region of Mallorca, a jewel in the heart of the Mediterranean, offers wines that are a direct reflection of its diverse landscape and sunny climate. From the mountains of the Sierra de Tramuntana to its sea-swept coastline, Mallorca combines tradition and modernity in every bottle. Diversity and Authenticity Mallorca boasts indigenous varieties that have stood the test of time, such as Manto Negro and Callet for reds, and Premsal and Giró Ros for whites. These grapes, together with other international varieties, give rise to wines with unequalled personality and character. A Terroir Bathed by the Mediterranean Mallorca's Mediterranean climate, with its mild winters and hot summers, together with the maritime influence, favours the production of balanced, aromatic wines with a refreshing acidity. The variety of soils, from calcareous to clayey, further enriches the profile of their wines. Exquisite Selection Our selection of Mallorcan wines has been meticulously curated to bring you the best the island has to offer. Whether you are looking for a robust red, a fresh white or an aromatic rosé, we promise that every bottle will be a unique experience.
